The board is almost identical to my beloved Scandi, save for one crucial difference: It has a cushy foam top (not unlike a standing mat). My knees don't cry out in pain on the Scandi the way they do standing on a flat floor, but I've definitely noticed stiffness and soreness over time; the Cloud's foam base should alleviate those sorts of aches and pains for the more-sensitive type.

I'll be picking up one of these pretty soon to review; in the meantime, if you're interested, you can pick up the Cloud for $189 from Fluidstance right now — the company offers a 30-day guarantee, so you can try out the board and send it back if it's not the experience you want.
